Surgeon I'm considering for BR only has 2 BR photos on website. It is too much to ask for more?
Answer: Ask anything that's on your mind! Hi Treebird, It's more than fair to ask! There could be very sound reasons for not having many photos on a website- the surgeon could be young in practice, or simply doesn't have the office infrastructure to do this type of work for him/her. If you ask, you might get an explanation that puts your mind at ease! Trust your gut, look at reviews, and if possible- speak to someone who has use this surgeon. Best of luck to you! - Dr. Nik

Answer: No Harm in Asking! Getting permission from patients to use their photos on a website is tricky so don't let this alone deter you from proceeding with this surgeon. It is worth asking to see if he/she has more photos because other patients may have given permission to use their photos for patient education in the office but not on a website, social media, etc. If there are no other photos, you may want to ask to speak with patients who have had a good experience with their breast reductions. Of course, make sure that your surgeon is a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon!

Answer: Breast reduction photos Hello, And thank you for the question. It is normal for the patients to ask for more before/after photos evaluate the results after a particular procedure. Your surgeon may have them, but they may not have been uploaded yet to his/her website. I suggest that you seek an in person consultation with a Board-Certified Plastic Surgeon to further discuss your options, specific techniques, concerns and expectations. I hope this helps.Good luck!

Answer: Photos Your surgeon probably has more photos to show in the office. Not all who agree to show photos allow photos on the Internet.
